You can keep two-line telephones on other
wall outlets as always. There are two ways to
add a two-line telephone to the machine's
wall outlet. You can plug the telephone line
cord from the two-line telephone into the
L1+L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Or, you can
plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack
of the two-line TAD.

Multi-line connections (PBX)

We suggest you ask the company who
installed your PBX to connect your machine.
If you have a multi line system we suggest
you ask the installer to connect the unit to the
last line on the system. This prevents the
machine being activated each time the
system receives telephone calls. If all
incoming calls will be answered by a
switchboard operator we recommend that
you set the Receive Mode to Manual.
We cannot guarantee that your machine will
operate properly under all circumstances
when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties
with sending or receiving faxes should be
reported first to the company who handles
your PBX.

telephone, you can make your machine
receive the fax by pressing the Fax Receive

pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you
can take the call at an extension telephone by

on page 50.)
Using an external
telephone(Connected to the EXT. jack
of the machine)
If you answer a fax call at the external
telephone, you can make the machine
receive the fax by pressing Start.
If the machine answers a voice call and
pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you
can take the call at the external telephone by
pressing Hook.
If you answer a call and no one is on
the line:
You should assume that you're receiving a
manual fax.
Press l51 and wait for the chirp or until the
LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.
Note
You can also use the Easy Receive
feature to make your machine
automatically take the call. (See Easy
